The Flores MiII starts.
CgRBAT, A. T., Nov. 8, 1857.

Monday afternoon last. A. the sound OF
the moving machinery the war-cloud
which has been gathering on Colonel
kinzer's brow the last ten days vanished
and happy, good.natured smile beamed
on his festures. The Colonel was told
that the concentrstors could be got ready
10 three or four Days sfter the completion
Of the other machinery; consequently he
marshaled his forces and rushed the
WORK. which was finished almost tv.
weeks ago. and since which time he has
had numerous premises Of ''only a day OF
two more" bat some thin2-nnknown To
all except Mr.. H. p. Hc'.od-l,sppened
and it was not until Moadsy noon ths,
the word vas given from the concsntr..

| THE CONCENTRATIONS
Are q pronounced success. The failing,
from them contain nothing and srs On
their way down the canyon to Join the
sands ol the valley. Through the courtesy
Of Superintendent Kinzer and the In.
ventor, Mr.. II. p. Holland, I WAS allowed
to view them in operation. All I feel al
liberty to say OF their concentration i:
that they are very simple, and any one
can see at the first glance at them the
utter impossibility for any fbrous metal,
to 20 through them. They are unlike an,
other known concentration, and Mr. Hol
land has been working for years upor
them; he finally dropped complicated
and intricate methods and adopted sim.
plicity, and like some of the best inven
tons the world has ever seen, one wonder
"why it was rot thought OF sooner, it il
so simple" Sups. Kinzer says the con
centrstors are doing all, and even more
than was promised. Mr.. Holland ha,
good and sufficient reasons for keeping
secret their construction for the present
but they viii undoubtedly be in the best
and largest mills Oh the coast in . shori
time. 9ss.

Mus. be seen TO be appreciated. They
deceive their looks, and the most skepti
cal must admit they ars ahead Of stamp.
for medium hard quartz, at any rate
! They started off a. pretty as 3 quarter
horse. do their work smoothly and stead
lily. and are void Of such "antics" a.
stamp batteries sometimes indulge in
Their discharge is double, through slot
s.reens, and the amount Of pulp coming
through is convincing proof Of their ex'
cellence; besides, their cost is not one
fourth that Of stamps.
THE MINE
Has been timbered in good shape. The
main tunnel is being driven to the south,
east line AZ fast a. men and dynamite car
drive il. Foreman Hemsley smiles and
looks pleasant, ~ lac has the mill full ot
ore and lots ia the mine already down
When asked il he had any doubts az tc
his ability to keep the mill supplied, he
turned to Col. Kinzer and facetiously re.
marked: "With all this water running
and pumps working, this is the dryes:
send off, ever witnessed; no, sir, il the
mill WAS OF twice its capacity l could bury
it with ore" This is indeed promising
and am aware that there is a. fine ore
in the tunnel as ever came out Of the
mine, and no work has been done above
the lace OF il, which will give them in the
neigh hborhood Of one hundred feet back. u
THE LABORATORY
Has been fitted up in good shape. Mr.,
Burgess. who is presiding, is an analytical
chemist. No furnaces TO suit his psets
are kept in stock at dealers in assayers
materials, 30 he adopted the plan Of Mr..
F. y. Dennis and built one in which be
can handle any thing from I. seoritsr to u
mating pct. The chemical department
will mystiiy any who do not know il
nsss. tut suffice 1t to say there Is every
thing that is required for any kind o!
assayinx.
The SOAkDlsS hDGSG
Is all tn II could be or is expected by the
delivers Of the deep, and owing TO the
successiul issues Of the mine and mill
Capt. To5in wears q face 40 broad, but
not sweeter, than his fidile, and If "ye
editor" could make it convenient to be
present you would be treated to the
cream OF the land, together witt, some
nellIfuous strains from the cat-gut and
horse-hair, and not
feel like one who treads alone
Some banquet hall deserted"
II was the intention, believe, to have
some of Kinznan's 3 representative people
present at the starting Of the mill, but
the uncertainty o: the finishing touches to
the soncentrators did not justify the sig
nal to he given you. You will get the
opportunity.
ARE WE TO HAVE A TOWN.
1t seems so. Already we have another
battery at Charley Gross house--s "gin
battery"--which is engaged in crushing
checks drawn on the Sather banking
house, at which fair share Of trade is
done In highly concentrated. compound
fluid extract Of tarantula pickle.
Chief Engineer Brakeman proposes to
move Mrs. II. and the children here, ~
does also Mr.. II. II. Partridge intend TO
bring his better half and housekeeping
goois. With this good start and our
